FocusTube - Stop losing hours to YouTube rabbitholes with AI nudges

by
YouTube is the best place to learn and the easiest place to waste an entire afternoon. FocusTube is a Chrome extension that uses AI to tell the difference. It classifies what you're watching against your goals in real time. Tutorials play uninterrupted. Rabbit holes get caught with smart nudges before you spiral. Block channels, set daily limits, hide recommendations, and track your Focus Score. Works on Chrome, Edge, and Brave. 14-day free trial. No card required

I tracked 57 hours of YouTube in one month. Most of it I didn't even choose to watch. I tried other blockers out there but they all had an all or nothing approach. Which didn't help when I would find my self going down search spirals and looking up content that wasn't relevant to why I joined in the first place. So I built FocusTube. It sits inside YouTube and watches your session. You tell it what you're trying to do today and what pulls you off track. It figures out the rest. Useful content plays without interruption. The moment you start drifting, it steps in. A nudge. A pause. A question: do you actually want to keep watching? Solo built. Just launched. Already iterating based on real user feedback. Would love to hear what you think.
